What is the Fire Magic E1060i Built-In Grill Cover?
This is a custom vinyl cover made to fit the Fire Magic **E1060i** built-in or Elite 50 grills. It protects the grill from weather, UV exposure, dust, and debris when not in use.
What materials, dimensions, and features does it have?
• Exterior: multi-layer PVC vinyl that is water- and weather-resistant.
• Interior: breathable polyester lining to help moisture escape and reduce condensation.
• Fit: designed for grills with a 48″ wide × 22″ deep cooking surface footprint (E1060i / Elite 50).
• Model / SKU: 3648F is the cover part number.
• Color: Black vinyl.
How do I install and use the cover properly?
1. Ensure the grill is completely cool before placing the cover.
2. Align the cover starting with the hood section, then pull it down over the body.
3. Adjust so the sides hang evenly and edges are not bunched.
4. Allow vents or openings (if any) to remain unobstructed so moisture can ventilate out.
5. To remove, lift it straight up; do not drag it over sharp edges to avoid tearing.
What are the benefits and what should I watch out for?
Benefits:
• Shields the grill from rain, UV damage, dust, and environmental debris.
• Helps maintain finish life on exterior components.
• Tailored fit ensures less flap in wind, better aesthetics, and more dependable coverage.
Considerations / cautions:
• Always let the grill cool before covering — hot surfaces may damage the cover.
• Over time, UV exposure and weather cycles may degrade vinyl, fade color, or stiffen material.
• In high humidity climates, moisture may still condense underneath — occasionally lift or air out the cover.
• The cover protects only the exterior — internal components may still be vulnerable if gaps or moisture exist inside.
